I am taking the rigividon combined pill. I have a cough and am also taking a mentholated bronchial balsam. It contains 3.5mcl of aniseed oil. Will this affect my birth control effectiveness?

No, a product containing anise oil will not adversely affect the effectiveness of the contraceptive you are using Rigevidon - there is no cause for concern. For your own mental comfort, you can keep a time interval between two products - at least 1-2 hours.
The availability of the drug in pharmacies in Polish can be examined here:
